File:Indigenous and Western paradigms by Grayshield and Mihecoby.jpg
A diagram of what Grayshield and Anita Mihecoby (2010) outline as some of the fundamental differences between Indigenous and Western paradigms as they relate to IWOK.[1]

Lisa Grayshield is a healer, professor at New Mexico State University in counseling and psychology, an enrolled member of the Washoe Tribe of Nevada and California, and advocate of Indigenous Ways of Knowing (IWOK).[2] In 2007, Grayshield and fellow scholar Donald D. Pepion established IWOK courses and programs at NMSU.[3] Dr. Grace Ann Rosile states that Graysheid "assists us in our desire to see the world through each other's eyes, it ways that may benefit all."[4]

In a 2010 study, Grayshield and Comanche scholar Anita Mihecoby compare and contrast Indigenous and Western worldviews, referring to an Indigenous paradigm as a model of sustainability and a Western paradigm as a model that prioritizes economic growth or Gross National Product (GNP). Grayshield reflects on the importance of IWOK to her as a healer "to diseeminate information that is critical in understanding our role as healers in today's world, where political and social constructs are polarized and the increasing destruction to the Earth has called into action every reconnection tactic we can muster." Grayshied reflects on the importance of IWOK as a way of bringing about global social change.[5]

In 2014, she gave two lectures at the Center for Rural Health.[6][7] In 2020, she co-edited the book Indigenous Ways of Knowing in Counseling: Theory, Research, and Practice with Ramon Del Castillo.[5]
